Type:: string

firstSourceWatch(tech)

Patches browser internal functions so that we can tell synchronously if a <source> was appended to the media element. For some reason this causes a sourceset if the the media element is ready and has no source. This happens when:

The page has just loaded and the media element does not have a source.
The media element was emptied of all sources, then load() was called.

It does this by patching the following functions/properties when they are supported:

append() - can be used to add a <source> element to the media element
appendChild() - can be used to add a <source> element to the media element
insertAdjacentHTML() - can be used to add a <source> element to the media element
innerHTML - can be used to add a <source> element to the media element

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`tech`	Html5	The tech object that sourceset is being setup on.

Source: tech/setup-sourceset.js, line 155

getDescriptor()

Get a property descriptor given a list of priorities and the property to get.

Source: tech/setup-sourceset.js, line 113

hook(type, The)

Add a function hook to a specific videojs lifecycle.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`type`	string	the lifecycle to hook the function to.
`The`	function \| Array.<function()>	function or array of functions to attach.

Source: utils/hooks.js, line 38

hookOnce(type, The)

Add a function hook that will only run once to a specific videojs lifecycle.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`type`	string	the lifecycle to hook the function to.
`The`	function \| Array.<function()>	function or array of functions to attach.

Source: utils/hooks.js, line 76

hooks(type, fnopt) → {Array}

Get a list of hooks for a specific lifecycle

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`type`	string		the lifecycle to get hooks from
`fn`	function \| Array.<function()>	<optional>	Optionally add a hook (or hooks) to the lifecycle that your are getting.

Source: utils/hooks.js, line 21

Returns:

an array of hooks, or an empty array if there are none.

Type:: Array

isPromise(value) → {boolean}

Returns whether an object is Promise-like (i.e. has a then method).

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`value`	Object	An object that may or may not be `Promise`-like.

Source: utils/promise.js, line 11

Returns:

Whether or not the object is Promise-like.

Type:: boolean

removeHook(type, fn) → {boolean}

Remove a hook from a specific videojs lifecycle.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`type`	string	the lifecycle that the function hooked to
`fn`	function	The hooked function to remove

Source: utils/hooks.js, line 54

Returns:

The function that was removed or undef

Type:: boolean

setupSourceset(tech)

setup sourceset handling on the Html5 tech. This function patches the following element properties/functions:

src - to determine when src is set
setAttribute() - to determine when src is set
load() - this re-triggers the source selection algorithm, and can cause a sourceset.

If there is no source when we are adding sourceset support or during a load() we also patch the functions listed in firstSourceWatch.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`tech`	Html5	The tech to patch

Source: tech/setup-sourceset.js, line 239

silencePromise(value)

Silence a Promise-like object.

This is useful for avoiding non-harmful, but potentially confusing "uncaught play promise" rejection error messages.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`value`	Object	An object that may or may not be `Promise`-like.

Source: utils/promise.js, line 24

sourcesetLoad(tech) → {boolean}

This function is used to fire a sourceset when there is something similar to mediaEl.load() being called. It will try to find the source via the src attribute and then the <source> elements. It will then fire sourceset with the source that was found or empty string if we cannot know. If it cannot find a source then sourceset will not be fired.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`tech`	default	The tech object that sourceset was setup on

Source: tech/setup-sourceset.js, line 19

Returns:

returns false if the sourceset was not fired and true otherwise.

Type:: boolean
